can a witness date and court a jw student if he intends to get baptized?
.
Yes - but the JW better be prepared to get a rough time from the elders and others.
A JW with "privileges" in a Cambridge congregation began courting a girl who was studying. (later baptised)
He was warned that if he did not stop SITTING NEXT TO HER IN THE KH, he would lose his privileges!
He told them to keep their "privileges." The couple got married after her baptism.
"Loving shepherds" - LOL.
regarding the governing body update 3 video on resuming meetings in person, i am wondering:.
what is the purpose of wearing masks and to sit keeping distances if you shake hands and hug each other before and after the meetings?.
It's not direction from God or Christ.
The G.B. members conduct a seance every week and receive insights from dead anointed JW's:
re chap. 20 p. 125 par. 17 - ...resurrected ones of the 24-elders group may be involved in the communicating of divine truths today.
14 jesus provides wise direction in times of crisis.
the benefits of that direction were evident when the covid-19 pandemic broke out.
while many in the world were uncertain about what course to take, jesus made sure that we received clear guidance to keep us safe.
Clearly, JESUS must also have guided the G.B. to instruct all JW's to get the "life-saving" jabs.
I wonder how many JW's died in 2021, thanks to a 40% increase in deaths?
many people took the covid vaccine and the boosters.
looks like those controlling such world wide campaigns have more in store for the humanity.
the powerful organization world economic forum says that the covid pandemic has started the digitalization and surveillance of everything.
@ KOSONEN: One of the wild beast's 'heads' must receive a death stroke, but then be revived.
If the beast is the U.N., maybe the damaged head will be indicated by Russia's removal from the U.N./Security Council in the near future because of the Ukraine invasion. (the silence so far is deafening)
Then the U.N. can re-emerge as an different 'beast' - one with more credibility.
to my friends on the board,.
i had troubles trying to find my password to log in, and because of that i had to come up with a new password.
i use to be truth and justice, so now its the same with the hyphens between the words.. i had read of certain ones here, getting an invite to the memorial.
"Heavenly & earthly hopes" appear to be discounted by scriptures and reason.
1) Jesus said, “And I have other sheep, which are not of this fold...and they will become one flock, one shepherd." (John 10:16)
Jesus didn't reveal there would be two folds - one in heaven and one on the earth.
2) Ephesians 4:4 says that there is one hope - not two.
Surely Jesus' ransom only bought back exactly what Adam lost - life on earth?
i got myself one of those things that give you the impression you're experiencing real-life enjoyable feelings and physical sensations, but it's actually all an illusion.. you mean a vr headset?.
no, a wife!.

Been there in my 'previous life.' Basically a drive-through town, to get to more interesting/busier places.

matthew 26: 18-20 .
18 he said: “go into the city to so-and-so and say to him, ‘the teacher says: “my appointed time is near; i will celebrate the passover with my disciples at your home.19 so the disciples did as jesus instructed them and prepared for the passover.20 when evening came, he was reclining at the table with the 12 disciples.. only jesus and his 12 disciples were present at the passover .if jesus wanted observers, he would of had some sit down at his last meal and requested that they be present that day and future passovers.
why does the wts feel that observers ( non partakers ) need to attend the yearly memorial?
R&F JW's cannot partake of the emblems because they are not participants of the New Covenant, as shown by the type/antetype which says foreigners were not participants of the Law Covenant.
wt 98 2/1 p.19, par. 6 - "Further, other sheep lay hold of the new covenant just as foreigners of old laid hold of the Law covenant. In what way? Not by becoming participants in it but by submitting to the laws associated with it and benefiting from its arrangements."
Deuteronomy 29:10-15 destroys this JW dogma & its implications.
10 “All of you are stationed today before Jehovah your God, the heads of your tribes, your elders, your officers, every man of Israel,
11 your children, your wives, and your foreign resident who is in the midst of your camp, from the one gathering your wood to the one drawing your water.
12 You are here in order to enter into the covenant of Jehovah your God and his oath, which Jehovah your God is making with you today
13 in order that he may establish you today as his people and that he may be your God, just as he has promised you and just as he swore to your forefathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
14 "Now it is not with you alone that I am making this covenant and this oath,
15 but it is with those standing here with us today before Jehovah our God and with those who are not here with us today."
